You’ll be picked up in a luxury, air-conditioned 4-wheel drive vehicle and taken on an exciting dune drive across the the golden sands of Arabian Desert. Race up giant sand dunes and plunge over blind precipices before heading to the top of the largest dune to watch the sun set over this beautiful landscape.
From here, continue to a Bedouin campsite nestled deep in the desert where a warm traditional Arabic welcome of dates and coffee awaits you. Here there is the chance to ride a camel or try sand surfing as a delicious barbecue dinner is prepared on open fires.
Dinner will be served to you under the stars as your lounge on embroided cushions and traditional Persian carpets. It is a time-honoured Arabic tradition to smoke a water pipe called Narhileh or ‘hubbly bubbly’ and this will be offered to you during dinner. Entertainment includes an authentic belly dancer and soft tones of Arabic folk music.
After dinner, you can sit around the open camp fires, smoke more of the hubbly bubbly and chat to the local ‘Bedouin’ people about their way of life and how it has changed since the massive development in Dubai. After a magical night in the silence of the desert sunrise wakes us up and we enjoy a breakfast before returning to Dubai at around 9.30am.
